Acquisition
This item cannot be crafted but only purchased through trade or received as a quest reward.
Analysis
Despite being called a helmet, its protection is comparable to a bowler hat made of low-mid tier materials. It only blocks minimal damage and, with its low HP, wouldn't last very long either. Quality does not affect its psychic effets, so an Awful helmet provides the same buff as a Legendary helmet. Eltex helmets also appease the headwear requirements of all nobles.
An Eltex helmet improves a pawns Psychic entropy recovery rate by 2.0 per 30 seconds, and their Psychic Sensitivity an amount dependent on the quality.
Quality | Awful | Poor | Normal | Good | Excellent | Masterwork | Legendary |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Psychic Sensitivity Increase | 8 | 10 | 12 | 15 | 17 | 20 | 23 |
